Japanese National Diet Approves WFM Japan Resolution 2005 is by far the most uniquely memorable year for Japanese world federalists, when the Japanese National Diet adopted a resolution advocating for a world federation. The resolution reads “Japan should make maximal efforts to get on well with all citizens of the world... and by pursuing the creation of a milestone for eventually realizing a world federation for the whole globe.” 2005 marks the 60th anniversary of when the late Mr. Yukio Ozaki, the first President of the United World Federalists of Japan, presented a bill called “A resolution concerning construction of a World Federation in the Globe” to the National Diet on 11 December 1945. Although the resolution was voted down, Japanese world federalists have continuously placed this resolution bill on the agenda in the National Diet. The recent adoption of this resolution is the result of many years of hard work on the part of members of both the Japanese Parliamentary Group for World Federation and WFM Japan.
